Abstract

Based on material from the fissure filling Gundersheim 4 (District Alzey-Worms, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany), a Ruscinian small
mammalian assemblage is described. Morphology and relations of significant species of Lagomorphs, Rodents and Insectivores is discussed.
In the domain of Soricidae, the new subfamily Paenelimnoecinae is erected to accomodate a special status of the genus Paenelimnoecus.
